Full Description

The State of Maryland was awarded competitive federal grant funds to extend middle-mile broadband infrastructure to each of Maryland's 23 Counties, the City of Baltimore, and the City of Annapolis, including many rural and underserved communities across the State. Expanding broadband is crucial for helping to create jobs, improve public safety, increase educational opportunities, improve health care delivery, and to improve infrastructure for the Defense Base Closure and Realignment (BRAC). The project was grant funded through the U.S. Department of Commerce's (DOC) Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP), as authorized by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). 1.2 The Inter-County Broadband Network, the "ICBN", comprised of nine central Maryland counties and cities and led by Howard County, Maryland, was a key sub-recipient of the State's grant award. Built using grant funds, the ICBN consists of 850 miles of fiber optics and directly connects over 650 community anchor institutions (schools, libraries, government buildings, community colleges, public safety agencies, etc.) The ICBN consists of Annapolis, Anne Arundel County, Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Carroll County, Harford County, Montgomery County and Prince George's County.
